In a document with different sections I want to add the number of
section
pages in the header and the total number of pages of the document in the
footing. This seems to give a conflict. As soon as I add in the footer
the
total number of pages of the document, the pagenumber of the section in
the
header also changes to the total number of pages of the document.
